Where He Leads, We Will Follow

As we continue on the journey of adopting, we are watching the Father's hand continue to move in so many different ways; but most specifically in the area of our faith.  We have been continuing down this road just expecting the ducks to line up in a perfect row and for that to be our signal that all lights are green.  However, God is stretching our faith in new and different ways as we are praying for specific things in this adoption.  I'd like to share with you some of the specifics we are praying for as we follow God's lead.

Some of the specifics if you'd like to join us:

*We are praying specifically for the birth mother to desire an open relationship.  I know that seems a bit counter-norm but we are praying for the opportunity to meet, love on, and most importantly share Christ's love personally.  

*We are praying for the health of our sweet little one to be like any parent would.  With that being said  we are bracing ourselves and asking God to prepare us for whatever the case may be for the child HE has for us. 

*We are also praying (even though its a far cry) that this adoption wouldn't cost as much as we've been prepared to expect.  Crazy I know, but we're still praying it!  But if it does, that He would continue to send the funds as He has so faithfully been doing through fundraisers, donations, grass cutting, and grants.

We are so very thankful and humbled that God has called us to adoption and we are so grateful for those of you who have so willingly gave and sacrificed thus far to help us graft another into our family as He so graciously did for us into HIS family!!! To God be all the GLORY as HE continues doing really GREAT and Mighty things!!!!

Stay tuned, this roller coaster just picked up speed!  More to come soon!
